Winifred Horan is an American violinist/fiddler of Irish descent. After classical training, she played with the all-female Celtic music ensemble Cherish the Ladies before becoming an original member of the Irish traditional music group Solas.

## Biography

Horan was born in New York City to Irish parents and studied piano (taught by her father, a carpenter and musician) and Irish fiddle playing at a young age. She attended and graduated from the New England Conservatory in Boston, Massachusetts, where she studied classical violin, and the Aspen Music Festival and School in Aspen, Colorado. She played with multiple orchestras, including the Boston Pops Orchestra, and string quartets, before joining the all-female Celtic music ensemble Cherish the Ladies in 1990. She co-founded Solas in 1994, and is on fiddle and backing vocals. On her participation in Solas and, in particular, touring with the group, Horan expressed in a 2008 interview: "Traveling the world with Solas has been one of the best things about being in the band."
Outside of her work with Solas, Horan was a member of and toured with The Sharon Shannon Band, and also performed with Irish singer-songwriter Pierce Turner. She was "featured fiddler" on When Juniper Sleeps, a 1996 solo album by Séamus Egan, and co-writer of certain tracks for the 1995 film The Brothers McMullen. She is also a nine-time champion Irish stepdancer and an All-Ireland fiddle champion, having won an All-Ireland Junior Championship at age eleven. In a December 2001 interview, Horan identified Liz Carroll, Egan, and Sharon Shannon as her top musical influences.
Horan released her first solo album, Just One Wish, in October 2002 on Shanachie Records. In 2006, she and fellow Solas member Mick McAuley, an accordionist, released Serenade on Compass Records, with covers of "After the Gold Rush" by Neil Young and "Make You Feel My Love" by Bob Dylan. Siobhán Long, writing for The Irish Times, listed Serenade as fifth on her list of top five Irish traditional music albums released in 2006. Horan composed two of the album's tracks: "Little Mona Lisa" and "A Daisy in December", which was featured during the third season of the American reality television competitive dance series So You Think You Can Dance.
Horan lives in Dover, New Hampshire and is currently a member of the faculty of The New England Conservatory.

# Witness Service

The Witness Service (also known as Citizens Advice Witness Service) is a service in England and Wales for witnesses who have to give evidence in criminal courts. The Witness Service offers practical and emotional support and is a free service. The service is funded by the UK government's Ministry of Justice, which also publishes general advice about testifying in court

## History

The Witness Service was first set up by Victim Support in the 1990s after research by the charity showed witnesses needed help to testify in court. It lobbied the government to fund the service, winning funding from the Home Office in 1991 and launching the service in 1994. By 1996 there was a witness service in every Crown Court in England and Wales.
Victim Support successfully ran the service for around twenty years before the Ministry of Justice awarded the £24m fixed-term contract to run the service to Citizens Advice in 2014. At the time, the Law Society Gazette reported that Citizens Advice Service did not get any additional funding to run the service.
The NSPCC set up and ran a specialist service specifically for child witnesses, which Victim Support developed further in a pilot study with funding from the Ministry of Justice.
# Woman's Club of Newport

Woman's Club of Newport, also known as Newport Town Hall, is a historic clubhouse located at Newport, New Castle County, Delaware. It was built in 1934, and is a one-story, T-plan building in the Tudor Revival style. It has a three-bay-wide, two-bay-deep, gable roofed main block with a broad wing extend to the rear, resulting in a T configuration. The roof of the wing is slightly higher than that of the front section, and terminates in a clipped "jerkinhead" gable. Originally built for the Woman's Club of Newport, in 1976, the clubhouse was sold to the Town of Newport for use as a town hall.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
# Woman's Club of Palmetto

The Woman's Club of Palmetto is a women's club and is also the name of its historic building in Palmetto, Florida. It is located at 910 Sixth Street West. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in March 1986.
The Woman's Club of Palmetto was founded in 1900, originally as the "Village Improvement Association". In 1905 it became the "Village Improvement and Library Association" and sought to develop a library. Eventually it applied for and got funding for a Carnegie library. The resulting library, built in 1914, is also included in the Palmetto Historic District. It was organized as a Women's club in 1915 and obtained a charter for that in 1916.
Mrs. Fred Kermode was Club President in 1926-27, and in 1929 became Chairman of the Building Committee. Her husband, who was probably the first architect in Palmetto, was commissioned to design a new clubhouse building.
The building completed in 1930 is a concrete block and stucco building having one- and two-story sections. It has "modest" Mediterranean Revival styling.
The building was deemed significant both for its architecture and for its historical associations.
It was also included as a contributing building in the Palmetto Historic District, which was added to the National Register in November 1986.
# World in Ferment

World in Ferment is a 1969 British television satire series which parodied current affairs programs, celebrities, and broadcasters. The series was written by N. F. Simpson, produced by Ned Sherrin and directed by Roger Ordish. The series aired on BBC-2 for one season consisting of six episodes. The series starred Jack Shepherd as Doug Searchbaker, Irene Handl as Madame Astoria, Dinsdale Landen as Chris Champers, Angela Thorne as Nancy Chuff, John Bird as Gerald Pikestaff, Eleanor Bron as Hildegarde Schindelstein, and actors Doug Fisher, Queenie Watts, and Arthur Blake transforming into a variety of roles in sketch comedy fashion.
Reviews for the program were mixed. Critic Marjorie Bilbow in The Stage and Television Today wrote the following about the program's sketches, "Not every item was equally successful, but the standard was high enough to put this series into that rare class of comedy show that can be enjoyed on several levels." The review in the Television Mail was more critical, stating: "'World in Ferment' must be regarded as a failure to realize an idea — an idea which in no doubt made everyone fall about laughing when they first talked about it... It is essentially verbal fun, even literary fun, which does not translate well into visual terms."

# Wrapports

Wrapports LLC was the American-based privately owned publisher of the Chicago Sun-Times and the Chicago Reader. It was headquartered in the Sun-Times building in Chicago.

## History

The company was launched in late 2011 by Michael W. Ferro Jr., chairman and CEO of the private equity firm Merrick Ventures, and Timothy P. Knight, who was former publisher of Newsday on Long Island, New York, during the time when it was owned by the Tribune Company. Ferro and Knight negotiated to purchase Sun-Times Media Holding Company from the estate of James C. Tyree, who died in 2011 after having led the Sun-Times out of a 2009 bankruptcy.
Ferro and Knight said the name "Wrapports" is meant to signify the "rapport" of new technology and the "wrapping" of a traditional print newspaper. They promised to transform the Sun Times' print products into "a true multi-media experience for our users — how they want it, where they want it, when they want it."
Wrapports reached an agreement to purchase the Sun-Times company in December 2011, debt-free, for a reported $20 million. Tyree had paid $5 million cash, and assumed $20 million in liabilities, two years earlier.
Sun-Times CEO Jeremy Halbreich, who managed the company under Tyree's ownership, stepped down after Wrapports took control of the company. He said he had not felt pressured to sell the newspaper, but found Wrapports to be a good match: "Since Jim passed away, one of my principal concerns was ensuring that the company passed into the right set of hands. I came in on an assignment to try to save the newspaper, and it evolved into something more. This just makes perfect sense for everybody."
The company's assets included the multiple Pulitzer Prize-winning Sun-Times, seven suburban daily newspapers surrounding Chicago in Illinois and Indiana, and the Pioneer Press chain of weekly newspapers north and west of Chicago.
Wrapports expanded in 2012, buying the Chicago Reader and its associated properties. No purchase price was disclosed, though published reports estimated it at $3 million. The Reader, an award-winning alternative weekly newspaper, had been owned by Creative Loafing of Atlanta, which went bankrupt in 2009.
Wrapports' online holdings include websites for each of its newspapers as well as standalone sites for classified advertising, local high school sports, and trivia expert Cecil Adams ("The Straight Dope") of the Reader.
In December 2012, it was announced that Wrapports will be closing all of its suburban offices and moving remaining employees downtown.
In October 2014, Wrapports sold its suburban Chicago newspapers to the Chicago Tribune Media Group.
On July 13, 2017, it was reported that a consortium, consisting of private investors & the Chicago Federation of Labor, led by businessman & former Chicago alderman Edwin Eisendrath, through Eisendrath's company, ST Acquisition Holdings, had acquired the Chicago Sun-Times and the Chicago Reader from Wrapports, beating out Chicago-based publishing company Tronc for ownership.
